abstract

The Technical Design for the COMET Phase-I experiment is presented in this paper. COMET is an experiment at J-PARC, Japan, which will search for neutrinoless conversion of muons into electrons in the field of an aluminium nucleus ($\mu-e$ conversion, $\mu^- N \to e^- N$); a lepton flavor violating process. The experimental sensitivity goal for this process in the Phase-I experiment is $3.1\times10^{-15}$, or 90 % upper limit of branching ratio of $7\times 10^{-15}$, which is a factor of 100 improvement over the existing limit. The expected number of background events is 0.032. To achieve the target sensitivity and background level, the 3.2 kW 8 GeV proton beam from J-PARC will be used. Two types of detectors, CyDet and StrECAL, will be used for detecting the \mue conversion events, and for measuring the beam-related background events in view of the Phase-II experiment, respectively. Results from simulation on signal and background estimations are also described.

  1. Lepton flavor violating decay of true muonium: $\boldsymbol{(\mu^+ \mu^-) \to \mu^\pm e^\mp}$

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    True muonium could decay into a muon and an electron with branching ratio up to 10^-20, giving a new probe of charged lepton flavor violation.

  2. Probing Scalar-Mediator Quark Couplings via CLFV Lepton-Nucleon Scattering

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The momentum-transfer dependence of the gluon-initiated CLFV subprocess can discriminate between Higgs-like and bottom-only scalar mediator couplings.

  3. Flavour and precision probes of a class of scotogenic models

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Full next-to-leading-order corrections to leptonic Z and Higgs decays are derived for the T1-2-A scotogenic model, and the resulting cLFV and electroweak observables are scanned to identify future collider probes.

  4. Features of Charged Lepton Flavor Violation in an $A_4$ Symmetric Neutrino Mass Model

    hep-ph 2025-07 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    A reanalysis of an A4 neutrino mass model concludes meson CLFV decays can be near current bounds while radiative CLFV vanishes, but the radiative amplitude is computed incorrectly.

  5. Experimental Measurements of the Muon $g-2$ and Searches for Charged Lepton Flavor Violation in the Muon Sector

    hep-ex 2025-01 unverdicted

    A proceedings review summarizing the Fermilab muon g-2 measurements and the MEG-II, Mu3e, COMET, and Mu2e charged lepton flavor violation searches, with no new results or analyses.
